Resumo(s)
Adega do Casal Manteiga is a publicly owned winery by the Municipality of Oeiras that produces
Carcavelos fortified wine. The effects of botanical species (Quercus pyrenaica, and Quercus
robur) and toasting method (medium and high) on a single vintage wine that has been aged for
8 years is examined. A total of twenty barrels were used with 5 replicates for each factor. The
barrels were fabricated and toasted using the same cooperage, J.M. Gonçalves in Portugal.
Significant differences were seen between the species Q. robur and Q. pyrenaica were shown
impact on total phenolic content including both flavonoids and non-flavonoids. The total phenols
of the wine aged in Q. pyrenaica barrels were significantly higher than in the Q. robur
counterparts with differences of 61.3 mg/L eq. gallic acid and 75.1 mg/L eq. gallic acid for
medium and high toast, respectively. Q. pyrenaica contained more flavonoids than Q. robur with
a difference of 35.9 mg/L eq. gallic acid at high toast and 34.2 mg/L eq. gallic acid at medium
toast. Regarding non-flavonoid compounds Q. pyrenaica showed 39.2 mg/L gallic acid
equivalents more than Q. robur at high toast and 27.1 mg/L gallic acid equivalents more at
medium toast. This difference in non-flavonoids was only statistically significant with the high
toast barrels. The degree of toasting had significant effects on the Flavonoid content of the
wine, as well as the tanning power. Flavonoid content increased for both Q. pyrenaica (Δ37.2
mg/L eq. gallic acid) and Q. robur (Δ35.5 mg/L eq. gallic acid) in the wines that were aged in
barrels that underwent higher toasting compared to medium toasting. The tannin power
decreased for both Q. pyrenaica (Δ13.66 NTU/mL) and Q. robur (Δ22.78 NTU/mL) when the
toasting increased
